I'm getting my 75 out finally! I plan on having low light plants and driftwood in a low tech tank. I have a Eheim 2215 for it and a penguin 350, but I think I'll just use the 2215.
For a substrate do I need any special substrate (laterite, comes to mind)or just gravel?
I draw a blank when it comes to fish, can someone suggest a good mix of fish and stocking levels? I have Neon Tetras, Platys and a Clown Loach in a 29 gal. The tetras and loach will move to the 75. I don't want livebearers in the new tank. I know the loach may become a problem, I had planned on getting a few more to keep the lone one company, I like it too much to get rid of it. My wife, however, hates how the tetras disappear every now and then.
So I was thinking a nice school of tetras, or some other community fish, 3-4 loaches, maybe a peaceful dwarf cichlid?
Please give me some fish names and I'll look into them, and any good low light plants, I have swords right now.
Thanks
